The Varsity Letter is a five-piece pop-punk band from Leonardtown, Maryland. The band consists of Ned Arick, Joe Savage, Matt Jones, Daniel Thompson, and Greg Cooksey. The Varsity Letter was formed back in the earlier months of 2008, and have been playing shows constantly since then. With each show, they reach a new person and thats all that these young men could ask for. After a couple of months worth of shows under their belts, they headed into the studio and recorded a two song demo, which was released in the beginning of 2009. Since the release of the two song demo, The Varsity Letter has begun moving up further to venues in Baltimore, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. They have gained the support of Battlefield Drum Company, Aditi Promotions, and Actaeon Records and they don't plan on stopping there.
"We want to make music that we enjoy. We are doing that right now and we absolutely love it. Knowing that there are people out there that enjoy our music as much as we do, gives us the best feeling in the world. We can't wait to tour, get out to see the world, and meet a lot of new people along the way."
The Varsity Letter is currently stepping into the studio with Mike Bridgett from Hamilton Road Studios in Waldorf, Maryland. They recorded the first song of our new EP with him. Lauren, I Could Have Seen This Coming received a great reaction from the fans. There are 5 more songs to be recorded for the 6 track EP entitled This Is Who We've Become which is hoped to be released at the beginning of July.
"We're going to be doing a lot of shows to support the release of the new EP. We're going to head to new places and try to expand on our fanbase. We want our music to be heard, and we're willing to go to any lengths to get that done. Thank you for listening."
The Varsity Letter would like to thank Rick Springer, Brittany Herbinko, Lauren Webster, Aditi Promotions, Hamilton Road Studios, Battlefield Drum Company, Actaeon Records, and everyone else who has supported us from the beginning and watched us grow throughout the ups and downs in this band. Without the fans and the people coming to the shows to see us, we would be nothing. So we thank you from he bottom of our hearts.
